I'm pretty sure (Like 99%) that they won't. I think that they are very hesitant to tackle that power scale while keeping the other classes populated. Maybe a scout marine, MAYBE. But for the most part they should keep it to low level agents of the imperium, like maybe skitarii, death cultist, ratling, and so on. I've really been enjoying the update nonetheless the dog is funee and I love the interplay of actual professionals and idiots too stupid to die.

It would be fine if it's a separate game.
 
It's goofy to me that larger magazines are a special node that only the Arbites gets as opposed to a Blessing that anybody that has access to a particular gun can use.

Also, the Stub Revolver should be a 6 gun by default, and only being a 5 shooter is stupid and gay as fuck. Potentially great weapon, but using it on any other Class than Arbites sucks. You mean to tell me that you can make TITANS, but you can't make a 6-round cylinder?!

I also LOVE the gorgeous game environments, but I'm always too busy fighting tooth and nail for my life to properly appreciate them.

I LOVE the Arbites and especially my good doggie, but going back to the Vet feels wrong. The Vet DESPERATELY needs a rework.

Re: upcoming plasma gun nerf
It's a bad idea. Vet has like one build that lets it hang with other classes and the plasma gun is what holds that together. The builds for either the recon lasgun or the infantry autogun require too many concessions and fall off in havoc. Every class has a couple of top notch weapons and for the vet it's the plasma gun. It's not as strong as the inferno staff or the rumbler or the flamer or probably even the arbites shotguns now. Just because it can smoke a crusher with a charged crit doesn't make it overpowered. If Fatshart actually goes through with the nerf, the class is finished. They're so fucking retarded it's unreal. It's been powercrept. Lose the plasma gun and the class becomes a shout and nade bot which it kind of already is.

I would love to know why Fatshark made the REVOLVER is only 5 shots instead of 6 too.

Because the hand cannon in Dark Heresy has 5 shots you baby. And it's not like 5 shot revolvers are inconceivable you even bigger baby. I guess you will cry to S&W too for the 500 being a 5 shot.

Without getting bogged down by the revolver specifically, this is probably the boring truth of it. There was an interview with the director a month or two ago and he talked about how there were/are weekly meetings with GW who have the final say over everything, apparently to the detriment of gameplay. It's been known since Vermintide that Fatshart has had GW breathing over their shoulder but forced weekly meetings running quite literally everything past GW while exercising ultimately very little creative control over the direction of their games sounds like a bad position to be in all things considered. Of course, that's assuming the guy is telling the truth and not exaggerating for the sake of the interview. There's a fine line between absolute compliance and concessions that has to be walked to placate GW, the worst of the fandom, and the tourists who just want to shoot rats cultists. The (completely functional) attachment system died because GW is staffed by petulant trannies who kick and scream because there was an optic on the Lucius.

Vet's problem is that it's an incredibly powerful class, for a playstyle that the game will actively punish you for playing at higher difficulties unless you approach it in a very boring way. As much as I want to love the Helbores, the charge shots feel like absolute shit to use without an auto-trigger mod and don't have enough impact to justify a charge, when you can instead get MORE damage and MORE convenience if you just use the revolver. On top of that, they should have the widest variety of tools, where's their flamers? their grenade launchers? Melta? Full on sniper rifles? They shouldn't have their grenades restricted by talent tree, they should have a grenade belt that has all the grenade types, with the talents improving a favorite one.

Guardsman vet should be the generalist, the gunslinger of many types, but is currently pigeon holed into the Mini-Commisar/Plasmabot.
